Special On Bill Gates’ Birthday His Philosophy Which Shows Us The True Picture Of Life


Bill Gates was born on 28 October, 1955. Of course,nobody needs to be told how wealthy he is and what the status of his Microsoft is. But today on his birthday, I wish to discuss a few of his qualities. Because it is my firm belief and it is also the truth that only a human being’squalities make him greatand successful. A human being cannot achieve greatness and success by relying on others or simply with the blessings of someone. And Bill Gates had understood this fact at a very young age itself. He did not believe in God or Destinyat all. In fact, it is also a ground reality that he who doesn’t seek the support of God or Destiny, has to rely on himself alone to achieve success under any circumstances... And this is exactly what Bill Gates did. But once he achieved the zenith of wealth and success on his own merit, he certainly became a refuge for millions of people. No one is unaware of his charitable activities. He has donateda major part of his wealth for noble causes.

Here, the lesson to be learnt from him is that we have to become successful on ourown merit.For that, one shouldn’t seek refugein God or Destiny...But once you become then you shouldn’t forget God. Then you must love everybody equally like God does and help others as much as possible. This is the true definition of religiousness. Even Buddha attained Nirvana on his own merit and then enlightenedthe world with thatwisdom. That is why Buddha had denied the existence of God. Because, if God meansseeking refuge, then God doesn’t exist.But we do exactly the opposite. To achieve success, we rely on God and Destiny and if by chance we manage to achieve something, then we refuse to care for others. We splurge everything on ourselves considering it solely ours. That’s exactly why we are not able to become like Bill Gates. We believe that blessings and destiny is in God’s hands but the fruits of success are ours. Whereas Bill Gates teaches us that hard work should be ours and the fruits belong to the whole world. And this is true religiousness. Religiousness cannot be proven by believing or not believing in God but by adopting God-likebehaviour.And that is why Bill Gates is religious despite being an atheist, and billions of people remain atheists despite regularly visiting temples, mosques and churches.
